PRESIDENT TRUMP IS DELIVERING A MAJOR PRIME TIME SPEECH IN SOUTH KOREA TUESDAY.
AND AHEAD OF THE SPEECH, TRUMP IS NOW TALKING NEGOTIATIONS RATHER THAN WAR -- WITH NORTH KOREA.
CNN WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT SARA MURRAY IS TRAVELING WITH THE PRESIDENT AND HAS THIS REPORT.
 --REPORTER PKG-AS FOLLOWS--
Pres. Trump
"North Korea is a world-wide threat that requires world-wide action."
PRESIDENT TRUMP - AIMING TO SEND A MUSCULAR SIGNAL TO NORTH KOREA -
Pres. Trump
The United States stands prepared to defend itself and its allies, using the full range of our unmatched military capabilities if need be."
EVEN AS THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF KNOWN FOR HIS FIERY RHETORIC - DIALED IT BACK IN A VISIT TO THE NATION WITH THE MOST AT STAKE. 
Pres. Trump
"I really believe that it makes sense for North Korea to come to the table and to make a deal that"s good for the people of North Korea and the people of the world."
APPEARING ALONGSIDE SOUTH KOREAN PRESIDENT MOON JAE-IN - AFTER THE TWO MEN SHARED TEA WITH THEIR WIVES AND TOOK PART IN A CEREMONIAL FRIENDSHIP WALK - TRUMP OFFERED A ROSIER TAKE ON DIPLOMATIC EFFORTS. 
Pres. Trump
"We sent three of the largest aircraft carriers in the world and they"re right now positioned. We have a nuclear submarine also positioned. We have many things happening that we hope, we hope -- in fact, I"ll go a step further. We hope to God we never have to use."
FOR A PRESIDENT WHO ONCE TOOK TO TWITTER TO SUGGEST HIS SECRETARY OF STATE WAS "WASTING HIS TIME TRYING TO NEGOTIATE WITH LITTLE ROCKET MAN" - IT WAS A SHARP CHANGE IN TONE.
THERE WAS NO TAUNTING NORTH KOREAN LEADER KIM JONG UN WITH DISPARAGING NICKNAMES-
NO THREATS OF FIRE AND FURY.
THOUGH THE PRESIDENT DID LEAP AT THE OPPORTUNITY TO BLAME HIS PREDECESSORS FOR THE DIPLOMATIC CONUNDRUM HE NOW FACES - 
Pres. Trump
"This is a problem, by the way, that should have been done over the last 25 years, not now. This is not the right time to be doing it. But that"s what I got. That"s what I got."
BUT EVEN WITH HIS ATTENTION TRAINED ON INTERNATIONAL THREATS - TRUMP WASN"T ABLE TO AVOID QUESTIONS ABOUT THE LATEST HORROR AT HOME - 
Pres. Trump:
"Well, you"re bringing up a situation that probably shouldn"t be discussed too much right now. We could let a little time go by, but it"s okay if you feel that that"s an appropriate question."
TRUMP DIDN"T ACKNOWLEDGE THE AIR FORCE"S ADMISSION THAT IT FAILED TO INFORM THE FBI OF THE KILLER"S DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CONVICTION.
AND HE INSISTED THAT ADDITIONAL GUN CONTROL MEASURES WOULDN"T HAVE PREVENTED THE MASS SHOOTING AT A TEXAS CHURCH - 
Pres. Trump:
"There would have been no difference three days ago, and you might not have had that very brave person who happened to have a gun or a rifle in his truck go out and shoot him, and hit him and neutralize him. And I can only say this: if he didn"t have a gun, instead of having 26 dead, you would have had hundreds more dead."

TRAMPOLINE EPIC FAIL! 2014
A drunken daredevil dubbed walked around with A broken back for EIGHT DAYS after a trampoline stunt went horribly wrong. Reckless Jordan Adlard, 26, climbed up a tree before leaping 20 FEET on to a trampoline BELOW. The bouncy gym apparatus sent him rebounding across his cousin's back garden - straight into a wooden fence. The wacky stunt was witnessed by shocked relatives at a family barbecue who rushed over to see if he was hurt.

IRAQ"S SECOND-LARGEST CITY COULD BE THE NEXT TARGET OF A COALITION OFFENSIVE AGAINST ISIS.
BUT BEFORE THAT OPERATION COULD BEGIN, MORE ALLIED MILITARY TRAINERS WOULD LIKELY HAVE TO GO TO IRAQ.
BARBARA STARR REPORTS.
 --REPORTER PKG-AS FOLLOWS--
THERE MAY BE UP TO 10,000 ISIS FIGHTERS KEEPING AN IRON GRIP IN ON MOSUL - IRAQ"S SECOND LARGEST CITY.
NOW, HUNDREDS OF ADDITIONAL U-S AND COALITION TROOPS COULD SOON BE NEARBY .
(Col. Steve Warren, Spokesman, Operation Inherent Resolve): "The reason we need new trainers or additional trainers is because that"s really the next step in generating the amount of combat power needed to liberate Mosul." 
THE US AND IRAQI GOVERNMENT CALCULATE 24,000 HIGHLY TRAINED IRAQI FORCES ARE GOING TO BE NEEDED TO DISLODGE THE TERROR GROUP AND RE-TAKE THE CITY.
DEFENSE SECRETARY ASH CARTER URGING OTHER NATIONS TO CONTRIBUTE MORE TROOPS AT A PARIS MEETING.
BUT WHILE THE BATTLE FOR MOSUL LOOMS, ISIS IS WORKING TO BUILD A NEW POWER CENTER IN LIBYA. 
A SENIOR DEFENSE OFFICIAL TELLS CNN FIGHTERS ARE INCREASINGLY GOING THERE WHEN THEY CAN"T GET INTO SYRIA -- AND OTHERS ARE TRAVELING THERE FROM SYRIA TO AVOID COALITION AIRSTRIKES. 
Natsot.
IN NOVEMBER THE FIRST US AIRSTRIKE AGAINST ISIS IN LIBYA KILLED ABU NABIL, A SENIOR OPERATIVE. 
TONIGHT, CNN HAS LEARNED THE U-S IS PRIVATELY PRESSING ALLIES TO TAKE NEW ACTION AGAINST HUNDREDS OF ISIS FIGHTERS NOW IN LIBYA EVEN AS MORE CONTINUE TO STREAM IN.
THE U-S IS ALREADY LOOKING AT MORE DRONE OPERATIONS.
(Col. Cedric Leighton (Ret.), CNN Military Analyst):"The threat in Libya, the classic failed state is growing by leaps and bounds. In essence what ISIS has done is they have transferred their operations from Syria and Iraq into Libya."
THE US DOESN"T THINK ISIS WILL FULLY ABANDON SYRIA. 
BUT THE WORRY NOW: ISIS WILL MAKE A GRAB FOR LIBYA"S OIL.
BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATION NEEDS CASH.
NEWLY RELEASED VIDEO SHOWS US BOMBING THIS ISIS CASH STORAGE SITE NEAR MOSUL...THE NINTH TIME CASH SITES HAVE BEEN HIT. TEN OF MILLIONS IN CURRENCY DESTROYED THE US BELIEVES.
ISIS IS NOW MOVING MONEY AROUND--TO SMALLER, MORE DISPERSED SITES. 
IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE A LEAKED DOCUMENT ISSUED BY ISIS, THE GROUP SAYS IT"S CUTTING THE SALARIES OF ITS" FIGHTERS IN HALF. THE STATEMENT READS: NO ONE IS EXCLUDED. 
(Col. Cedric Leighton (Ret.), CNN Military Analyst): "If you don"t pay the troops, the troops wonder off. "

1980s NEWS
INTERVIEW CONTINUED Robert Lipsyte: dangerous or counterproductive to our lives? Cynthia Ozick 17:39 Oh, absolutely counterproductive. Where where his conduct? Where we're are what? Mr. Campbell despises the rules. How do we know the difference between good and evil? He said in another part of those broadcasts that there was no good and evil one, everything that is, is all right, because it is. Now first of all, you would never have technology. If you believe that nobody could ever invent the wheel, you would never have amelioration of suffering. And in any case, he he and noble suffering, I don't believe he's a revolutionary at all. I think the revolution comes in the in the first moment that the human being says, I have a desire to do something, but I will not do it. Restraint and restraint of one's own conduct is the revolution. That's the revolution of conscience. Do Robert Lipsyte 18:33 you think he's dangerous? Do you think he's dangerous to all those 30 million people out there who watched that series? Cynthia Ozick 18:38 He's probably not too dangerous insofar as the poetry is lovely. If they're going to take him seriously, then of course, he's dangerous. He's going to make everybody feel that he or she is capable of other unrestraint Robert Lipsyte 18:52 Cynthia, sitting next to you somebody who would want people to take Joseph Campbell seriously, wouldn't you? Yes. Oh, how do you feel about what you just said? Madeline Nold 19:00 Well, I agree to disagree. And I don't feel that he's dangerous in the sense that he might change millions you know, you mentioned Hitler or something before like like that. He's a he was a kind soft spoken, intelligent man. What is dangerous if you think about danger, are perhaps the real fascists who are out there the real skinheads, you know, the groups that are really alive. He's not alive anymore Cynthia Ozick 19:24 his philosophy creates Robert Lipsyte 19:26 they don't watch PBS. Cynthia Ozick 19:28 You don't think that that the philosophy of I am God are inseparable. God is in me, the power of the universe, the force of allnness is in me, you don't think that's a dangerous thing. Madeline Nold 19:40 I ask you something. If you don't trust yourself, and I'm taking a little bit of a theoretical leap here, okay. If you don't trust yourself deeply inside and you're a little scared of trusting yourself, then you might project out that it's dangerous to trust yourself and have an experience that would be beyond the mental safety of thinking and ideological Robert Lipsyte 20:00 I hear you saying that religion is for insecure people? And that Joseph Campbell gives you this the strength and energy to move out Madeline Nold 20:06 no, I'm not saying that's what I want to do. To clarify, this is what I feel that religion as such, gives you dogma and ideas, and you can line up rituals in a way of life so that you can feel secure. I don't think it's bad. I'm not a Marxist on that, you know, I don't think that it's the opiate of the people. But on the other hand, to trust your own your own inner life, your own experience, can sometimes take a lot of courage. Daniel Noel 20:33 In the area of psychology, where Joe Campbell was moving the Western tradition and the myth, mythical tradition of the West End of the World, precisely in this individualistic direction, then one has to start to talk about what did he mean? And what did his mentors Freud and Jung mean by the self? Because it follow your bliss means to trust yourself? The question is, is this the ego is this the deep self, we start to get into those distinctions. And if one goes deeply, quote, unquote, deeply enough, one reaches something that may be transpersonal, or transcendent of the ego and of the self in a narrow sense. And then you start to get something that is not selfish in our, you know, small s sense of selfish. Robert Lipsyte 21:18 So I think you are saying that we get to that with Campbell. that ultimately he gives rather than takes away Robert Segal 21:21 May I reinforce I think what Dan is saying, where I think Gil and perhaps Cynthia have misunderstood once again, I don't present myself a defender of Campbell misunderstood the clout of follow your bliss, is in failing to connect it to Campbell's staunch, relentless, never abandoned mysticism to follow your bliss is not for him. And again, I'm not defending it is not for him, to do whatever you like, oblivious to others. It's not to find God in yourself, and not to find it and others on the contrary, it's in Campbell's reading of mysticism in which all things are want all paths are one as well. Wherever you go by Campbell's logic, wherever your bliss leads you, it will lead you it will lead you down the same path as as following the bliss of others will lead them it will lead you to the same oneness you find I find God only Robert Lipsyte 22:07 I gotta tell you, somebody who really enjoyed the series as watching storyteller, I find this kind of woolly. I mean, this oneness and this path and everything like that. Daniel Noel 22:17 Might be woolly, wool. Wool should be woolly. We use these terms, spongy, fuzzy and woolly. Well, you have to realize there are many logics, Cynthia Ozick 22:26 which is a more philosophical term, how about the term fusion, as opposed to making distinctions? Robert Lipsyte 22:32 Well, like what it's all about, Daniel Noel 22:34 fusion people, I like, fusion better than nuclear, Robert Lipsyte 22:37 people are trying to find their way. And for some people, of course, this series was nothing less than an exploration of the meaning of life. It Campbell put an interesting spin on that, too.

Do you have the political will to enforce these very vital reforms?"\nJoko Widodo, Indonesian President: "We must conduct reform on a massive scale, a reform of mindset so that these changes are real and will deliver a giant leap for this country, so that we are not stuck in the middle income trap experienced by many countries. We don't want that, but this is a huge challenge for us and it's fairly difficult but we will continue to work hard to achieve that goal."\nAnna Coren: "Education, as you mention, is a huge problem in your country. Despite the constitution requiring the government to spend 20% of the budget on education… studies have found more than half the students finishing school are illiterate. Why is the system failing these kids?"\nJoko Widodo, Indonesian President: "Well I think in terms of the 20% budget, it's quite a large amount but I think there is a lot of misuse so that is something that we would like to work on so that we can have a better targeted budget, which will result in a better education system in Indonesia. Issues related to curriculum, the quality of the teachers and issues relating to vocational school are important for Indonesia to improve and elevate its position."\nAnna Coren: "Well, the trade war between the US & China is obviously unsettling world markets but could this be an opportunity for Indonesia?"\nJoko Widodo, Indonesian President: "Trade war for any countries is something that they cannot gain from, and I think all countries are facing difficulties due to this trade war. Nobody wins but I think Indonesia will seek opportunities to take advantage of this situation so that the Indonesian economy will not be adversely affected. Of course, it is not easy but we hope that protectionism and the trade war can be eliminated because I believe that free market, free trade, fair trade is something that is highly beneficial for the global economy."\n -----END-----CNN.SCRIPT-----\n\n --KEYWORD TAGS--\nINDONESIA JOKOWI JOKO WIDODO \n\n
